Abstract :
The results of calculation of forward scatter radar cross section of the widely spread models of unmanned aerial vehicles are presented. The coverage of forward scatter radar when detecting targets of this type is estimated. The configuration of multi-static forward scatter radar enabling the improvement of low-observable target detection efficiency is proposed. The general block diagram of digital signal processing system is designed. The estimations of potential coordinate measurement accuracy in multi-static radar with the placement of positions on the UAVs are obtained.
